In the 70s the league was known for multipurpose stadiums with bad sight lines in every sport especially baseball.

Part of why they are rebuilding so many new stadiums. I think the Raiders just came from one of those multipurpose stadiums.

Got to spend a Billion six on this rather than spend on cent on our 50th place Education system. Yah,we are number one!!!!

We are now behind Mississippi in most Categories.

But,the LCVA could give a crap less. Always need janitors and Ticket takers.

Las Vegas joins the list of municipalities conned by the Davis family. That said, I’m still in awe of the structure they built.

a Minnesota Engineering and Construction that made it happen. If it had been one of the Local's,we would not see this think finished until 2022 plus most likely a Billion in over run costs. It is the Culture Baby.

Like the Rams' new digs, too. They did an extensive walk-through on Hard Knocks and it was just stunning. Even a little nicer than this place, though this place aint too shabby.

as part of a trip to Vegas, a one-time splurge. If you lived there you could get season tickets, attend a few games and then sell the balance and make enough to pay for the tickets. It's going to be a spendy proposition to go to a game there, to be sure.
